Because a promise is a promise... this Saturday afternoon I'm celebrating my 9 year old son's birthday⛹️ he's a basketball player 🏀 and he and his team won the Olympics so as a reward we came to The "Parque de la Amistad" in the district of Santiago de Surco in Lima Peru, we live quite close to the place and it was a wonderful experience💫

We arrived at 3 in the afternoon and the first thing we saw...

Here is a brief summary

Construction began on July 10, 1923, and it was handed over to the city of Lima on July 17, 1924.

In 1938, President Óscar R. Benavides and his Minister of Development, Héctor Boza, ordered the demolition of the monument.

But on September 25, 2001, Mayor Dargent and the Spanish colony with the presence of the Kings of Spain, inaugurated the new Friendship Arch, a faithful copy of its predecessor, located in the María Graña Ottone Friendship Park, at the intersection of Alfredo Benavides and Caminos del Inca avenues in the Santiago de Surco district. There are various recreational activities in the park, from feeding the ducks🪿🦆

It also houses a steam locomotive from 1926, which can be traveled through a 550-meter circuit of tracks.🚂🚂

and there is also this little wagon 🚂 that has been in the park since 2002

The truth is that it was a different afternoon and we enjoyed it a lot..

and meanwhile my little one continues to enjoy his medal 🏅

If you already knew this beautiful place Go ahead tell us what you think🤔💭👍
